If you are heading...

1. Eastward on I-10: Be on the lookout for the Beltway 8 exit. Soon after that is the 610 Loop. Take 610 South to 59 North. Get on 59 North. (Go to #6.)

2. Westward on I-10: Soon after you cross 610, look for 59 South. Take 59 South. (Go to #5.)

3. Southward on I-45: After you cross I-10, take 59 South. (Go to #5.)

4. Northward on I-45: This is how you get to Jones if you fly into Hobby Airport (HOU). After you cross 610, follow the signs closely to get on 59 South. Take 59 South. (Go to #5.)

5. Southward on 59: This is how you get to Jones if you fly into George Bush Houston Intercontinental Airport (IAH). Cross 610, then I-10, then I-45. Stay on 59 South. When you see the Fannin exit, you are close. Exit Greenbriar/Shepherd—the exit after Fannin. If you get to the Kirby exit, you have gone too far. After exiting Greenbrair/Shepherd, the first light is Shepherd. Go through this light to the next one, which is Greenbriar. At Greenbriar, take a left (it is a one-way street). (Go to #7.)

6. Northward on 59: After 610, look for Kirby. The next exit is Greenbriar/Shepherd. Exit here. The first light you come to is Greenbriar. Take a right here (it is a one-way street). (Go to #7.)

7. To Jones from Greenbriar Street: Heading South and away from 59 on Greenbriar, go through two lights until you come to Rice Blvd. Take a left onto Rice. Continue down Rice Blvd. (which becomes Sunset Blvd.) and turn right at the stop light at Main Street. Take another immediate right, entering in the right fork of Entrance 1 (the main entrance to Rice University). Follow the road straight ahead and you will see Jones College in front of you.

Move-in is Sunday, August 17 for all students (except for international students and certain varsity athletes). We have shifts for moving in because of space limitations, so please come at the correct time.

 

This year we will be moving in by floor. Please make sure to come at your alloted time to make this process easier for everyone. 

 

3rd Floors- 8 AM

 

4th Floors- 9 AM

 

2nd Floors-10 AM

 

During Move In Day, we will have Disney movies playing in the lobby, so once you finish moving in, feel free to hang out with other members of your floor and watch a movie!

 

 

Directions To Jones

Move In Day

When you get to Jones, your advisors will be waiting to greet you and help you move in. After unloading all of their kids' belongings, parents or those accompanying new students will then drive their car to West Lot (the parking lot near the football stadium) and take the Rice shuttle bus back to Jones. This may sound crazy right now, but don't worry. It will all make sense when you arrive, and you'll have more help getting moved in than you could ever ask for!

Here is a map of Rice Campus. Jones is number 39. The best enterance to take for move in day is 1, where advisors will be waiting with signs to direct you!
